I cannot weigh in on recent data but I hunted Westchester Co 1994 -2000. It is clicky. We used to hunt 5-10 acre parcels. I always had to worry about deer crossing boundries. Securing property ismore challenging than the hunt itself.

With the deer densities it was not uncommon to see 50-60 deer/day and leave the woods with a quiver full of bent arrows. It was some of the most exciting huntingI have done to date. I think I only ate my tag one year. I got a nice 9 pointer that graces my wall. The ticks were real bad then. I imagine they have to be worse now. I nowchoose to hunt Steubin County with a gun. Although the deer are not as numerous as Westchester Co.the quality of the deerare as good as it gets in NY.
